Dear Siblings of the Rocky Mountain Region,
It is with joy that we announce that Mother Kae Madden (Pastor of Church of the Beloved) and Father Michael Nicosia (member of St. Paul Lutheran & Catholic Community of Faith in Denver and the Vicar to our Region) have accepted their nominations for the upcoming election as our region's first local bishop.
After the vetting process is complete, the candidates and the regional communities will enter a period of discernment. During this period, the candidates and communities will meet to have Holy conversations discussing each candidate’s call to be bishop.
Community members will have the opportunity to prayerfully hear each candidate’s vision and ministry for the region. Members will also have an opportunity to ask questions of each candidate to help them more fully understand the candidate. In addition, the Bishop Call Committee will send out information to the communities on each candidate.
Please pray for the Wisdom of the Holy Spirit to descend upon us all as we journey through this discernment process.

Colorado Poor People’s Campaign |
TOMORROW - Saturday Jan 23, 2-4:00 pm, we will have our next Colorado Poor People’s Campaign northern Colorado community conversation via Zoom.
I am appealing to you to help get out the word to everyone who has been impacted by injustices of systemic racism, systemic poverty, an economy of militarism, ecological devastation and a false nationalistic moral narrative, or, by the problems these injustices produce such as healthcare inequalities, homelessness, climate change, etc.
We want to hear from you, share our experiences,
and brainstorm ideas for action to drive policy changes
to lift up our communities and institute policy changes to bring about justice for all. I’d like to make a special appeal to young people (anyone younger than me!) to attend this one. They are the leaders of tomorrow and we must hear their voices today. More event information here: Facebook PPC Calendar
Community Conversation Zoom link: Saturday Jan 23, 2-4:00 pm,
